Placeholder. I (Mythic) am gearing up to run some pathfinder here, just laying out some foundation stuff here before I put up the recruitment thread.

House Rules

  1. Guns ARE allowed but limited to Early Firearms only. No Advanced Firearms.
  2. Oriental Martial Arts Classes (Monk/Brawler/Ninja/Samurai/etc) - I'm not going to sugar coat it - I don't like these classes in traditional fantasy settings. I have no problem with the class mechanics and abilities, but oriental martial arts classes really don't belong in traditional european-themed fantasy RPGs. It kills immersion for me so they are a hard no.
  3. Aliens & Otherworldly Characters - This ties into the rule directly above about immersion. Aliens, robots, etc don't belong in my fantasy games. I'm open to things like Aasimar's and such as they are not aliens, they were people who mated with some extra planar being. Same with Oreads and other such creatures - I'm good with them as long as they aren't aliens or robots or something typically belonging to a futuristic sci-fi game.

Character Creation

Races Allowed

  • All Core, Standard, Featured races are allowed
  • Uncommon and Monstrous races will be considered on a case-by-case basis (Monstrous in particular is very likely no but I will consider them for the right character)
  • No Advanced, Very Powerful, or Unknown Race Points races are allowed
  • Alternative Racial Traits & Racial Feats are generally acceptable as long as they don't go against my House Rules above, run them past me if you want to use any

Classes Allowed

  • All Core, Base, Hybrid, and Occult classes are allowed except Monk and Brawler, see House Rule 2 above
  • Alternate Classes will be considered on a case-by-case basis but Ninja and Samurai (see House Rule 2) is a hard no and I'm not fond of Antipaladins so likely these will be denied
  • Unchained classes are most likely fine except Unchained Monk (see House Rule 2). The others should be fine.
  • Prestige classes (if we get that far), should be fine as long as it doesn't violate House Rule 2
  • Class Archetypes & Alternative Class features should be fine as long as they don't violate my House Rules, but run them past me in advance for a final yes
